4 Why evaluate? Who benefits from the evaluation? What format should be used? What problems might arise? Introduction employees see performance evaluations as having a direct effect on their work lives questions regarding the performance management process:

5 Performance Management Systems Performance management systems have three main purposes: 1.two-way feedback – performance measures mutually set between employee and employer 2.development – identify areas in which employees have deficiencies or weaknesses 3.documentation - to meet legal requirements

6 Performance Management Systems Performance management systems arent perfect. focus on the individual: discussions of performance may elicit strong emotions and may generate conflicts when subordinates and supervisors do not agree focus on the process: company policies and procedures may present barriers to a properly functioning appraisal process appraisers may be poorly trained For further reading: when HR needs to overhaul its appraisal system:

7 The Appraisal Process establish performance standards with employees compare actual performance with standardsdiscuss the appraisal with the employeeif necessary, initiate corrective action measure actual performance communicate expectations and set goals

8 The Appraisal Process 1. establish performance standards 2. communicate expectations goals must be articulated from supervisor to employee and from employee to supervisor derived from companys strategic goals based on job analysis and job description

9 The Appraisal Process measurement of performance using information from: 3. measure actual performance 4. compare performance with standards explanation of different levels of performance and their degree of acceptability against the performance standard personal observation statistical reports oral reports written reports

10 The Appraisal Process immediate action deals with symptoms basic corrective action deals with causes 5. discuss appraisal with employee 6. initiate corrective action feedback employees receive has strong impact on self-esteem and subsequent performance

11 The Appraisal Process Five common mistakes managers can make in giving a performance review: waiting for the performance appraisal to give feedback 1 overemphasizing recent performances 2 being too positive or negative 3 being critical without being constructive 4 talking not listening 5

12 Appraisal Methods The Three Appraisal Approaches no single approach is best; each has its strengths and weaknesses absolute standards relative standards achieved outcomes

13 Appraisal Methods employees performance is measured against established standards evaluation is independent of any other employee absolute standards

14 Appraisal Methods critical incident appraisal: based on key behavior anecdotes illustrating effective or ineffective job performance checklist appraisal: appraiser checks off behaviors that apply to the employee graphic rating scale appraisal: appraiser rates employee on a number of job-related factors; avoids abstract categories absolute standards

15 Appraisal Methods forced-choice appraisal: appraisers ponder sets of statements that appear to be equally favorable, then choose the statement that best describes the employee behaviorally anchored rating scales (BARS): appraiser rates employee on factors that are defined by behavioral descriptions illustrating various dimensions along each rating scale absolute standards

16 Appraisal Methods group order ranking: employees are placed in a classification reflecting their relative performance, such as top one-fifth individual ranking: employees are ranked from highest to lowest paired comparison: each individual is compared to every other final ranking is based on number of times the individual is preferred member in a pair relative standards

17 Appraisal Methods Management by Objectives (MBO) includes mutual objective-setting and evaluation based on the attainment of the specific objectives firms overall objectives translate into specific objectives at the divisional/departmental/ individual levels achieved outcomes

18 Appraisal Methods achieved outcomes common elements in an MBO program are: 1. goal specific 2. participative decision making 3 a specific time period 4. performance feedback effectively increases employee performance and organizational productivity, especially when goals are difficult enough to require stretching

19 Factors That Can Distort Appraisals distortions central tendancy similarity error halo error leniency error

20 Factors That Can Distort Appraisals leniency error : each evaluator has his/her own value system; Some evaluate high (positive leniency) and others, low (negative leniency) halo error : evaluator lets an assessment of an individual on one trait influence evaluation on all traits

21 Factors That Can Distort Appraisals similarity error: evaluator rates others in the same way that the evaluator perceives him or herself central tendency: the reluctance to use the extremes of a rating scale and to adequately distinguish among employees being rated

22 360-Degree Appraisals It is an appraisal device to seek feedback about employee's performance from different sources such as where he is being rated, bosses peers, team members, customers and suppliers who have become popular in the organization is called 360-appraisal

23 Creating More Effective Performance Management Systems For an effective performance appraisal meeting: 1.prepare/schedule meeting in advance 2.create supportive aura about meeting 3.describe appraisals purpose 4.involve employee in appraisal discussion 5.focus on behaviors, not employee 6.cite specific examples 7.give positive and negative feedback 8.ensure employee understood appraisal 9.generate a development plan
